| Sumario: | This collection brings together eight early modern scholars who radically reassess the crises of authority, agency, and sexuality that have surrounded Bunyan since he first began to preach and to write. In his anguished, self-conscious pursuit of salvation, Bunyan augurs the dilemmas of modernity, and at the same time, vigorously espouses dissent and liberty. The essays in this collection examine the societal and psychological fault lines in the early modern culture that Bunyan himself epitomises. |
